Some issues with IP Addresses:

• IP Addresses are not validated by the program.
• IP Addresses can easily be incorrect when typed.
• The program does not automatically load the specific values already determined by the wlan.conf file generated.
• IPv6 is not supported
• If Windows ICS does something strange with the gateway IP, the program does not know about.

Quite a few users are frightened by the use of a console, and don't like. Therefore, a .NET GUI, being implemented would be quite useful to quite a few people.
A few basic requirements:

• The source code should be in ".\windows\src\gui"
• The GUI doesn't need to be implemented in a .NET language, it just needs to follow ease of use design principles.
• If a .NET language is used the .NET framework can either be v3.5 or v4 (doesn't support XP) to support the most common Windows release
• For Windows VS2012/2013 should be used

Linux support depth should be broadened to include more teams focusing on a budget.
This should include

• standard distro updating and installing packages to get the system ready

i.e.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y upgrade
sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk git build-essential python other-things

• checking that everything works
• writing *nix documentation
• Anything else that should be included for *nix
